Can other drinks such as diet sodas and herbal tea count towards my 8 glasses of water for the day?

Can other drinks such as diet sodas and herbal tea count towards my 8 glasses of water for the day?

SparkPeople experts say they do. But, as they also indicate, plain water is best. There is evidence that caffeine is not good for people losing weight; I have quit my daily coffee intake until I get close to my ideal weight. Diet sodas also have sodium and other chemicals that are not all that great for dieters.

Water rules! :-)
